Mike Mahan is the CEO of Fanatics Collectibles, leading the company’s trading card and memorabilia business anchored by Topps. Since joining Fanatics, Mahan has driven the division’s sales to more than $1.6 billion in 2024 - a more than four-fold increase since his arrival and up 40% year-over-year.

He has spearheaded major league partnerships for Topps, including UFC (2023), MLS (2023), WWE (2024), the English Premier League (2024), and the upcoming NBA (2025), while also securing LeBron James and Shohei Ohtani to exclusive athlete deals. Mahan personally created the concept for the MLB Debut Patch (2022), connecting game-used patches from players’ first games to their trading cards.

He has also advanced transparency across the hobby - commissioning KPMG randomness audits in 2024 and 2025 and extending redemption expirations to 10 years - cementing Fanatics Collectibles as a modern leader in integrity and scale.
